Sell it on Ebay and get a LT1 T56. Tim

Yeah...I agree. Unless you really want the 'bragging rights' to say "I built it myself", go crate motor! The prices are very reasonable (esp. if you can pick it up yourself, and not pay shipping) and you get a warranty. If you make a mistake putting it together and blow it up.......you'll have to start all over again. You can use the RV motor as a dummy though! Use it to put in the Z, make all the bracketry and fuel lines, fans etc, then order your crate weight.....that way you won't have a bunch of $$$ tied up sitting in your garage while you're building.

Aw come on, Dan...U don't need no stinkin' A/C....more weight and less HP!! Tim

Same here--I thought he just left off an "M" in the subject line.... The life of a geek Both of y'al are sad!! Tim

Well...tested again today and it passed way low! N.O. went from 1133ppm to 30ppm. The alcohol in the tank and 'driving it clean' (aka driving like I stole it). whoo hoo!! Tim

Here is some reading for you: http://www.hybridz.org/phpBB2/viewtopic.php?t=20565&highlight= Tim

I have a set of 16x7 Centerlines. the BS is 4 inches if I remember right. Tim

Mike, When you say "into the engine", you mean into the oil? Tim

Alex, It's a plastic cell. Just for reference, my Dad's Camaro (trans am series type racing..) uses a cell with rearward dumps, and foam, most road racing cars do. Tim

I passed great on the 25mph test, but failed NOx miserably on the 15mph test (almost double the max allowable). HC and CO were fine. My idea was maybe CAT was bad, but it was replaced in '99! Could it be that the O2 sensors are getting 'lazy'? Any ideas. Is there some 'juice' that I can add to get me passed. Thanks, Tim

Alex, I think the cheapest route is the Summit 'pro stock' 16 gal cell. Comes with sender etc. You will just need to mount it. I made a metal box in place of the spare tire. Tim

The VERY reason why I do things myself! Tim

Well, if the custom pine hood pole is anything to go by..... :malebitchslap: Tim

They will fit, but are far from ideal.. BTW, I have a set of those summit headers...never installed. Tim

Dan, From what I remember hearing from posts on the board is that you have to go with an aftermarket pulley system, like March etc and mount the AC compressor up above the valve cover, but I don't believe that anyone has actually done it (prohibitive cost for us poor Z guys.) Tim

You will want to have it separated from the driver compartment somehow. if you get into a wreck and the cell ruptures, you don't want fuel spraying all over you. Plus, snactioning bodies will never let you run it at the track or strip that way. Tim

I move the knock sensor to the passenger side of the block, just above the oil filter boss. There is a blind hole there that just needs to be drilled out slightly and tapped to accept the threads of the KS. I also had to very slightly grind a bit off the edge of the block at the bellhousing boss to clear the 'bulb' part of the knock sensor. Remember, the oem location of the KS is in a coolant passage, so you will need a plug for the hole once you remove the KS. Tim

Please use the search function. This topic has been discussed at length. Thanks, Tim

Not completely

I could spend that same amount of cash, but I don't think that my wife would appreciate the LT4 head/cam kit on her finger Wow, that's serious boulder there!!

I have one of those plumbed into my rear brake line. Haven't gotten the car on the road yet, but it should work well. Get rid of the oem proportioning valve though, and you will need some special fittings, and a flaring tool.. I got mine from Earl's (fittings that is). Tim

Have to wait untl the car is painted to install, but I did loosely install the main hatch seal and the rubber is nice and soft and supple and the fit was perfect. Hope that helps...the quality 'appears' top be excellent. Tim
